Sue Tasker and Jasmine Tasker

Driving force behind Angels Community Group

2025 QLD Local Hero Nominee

Sue and her daughter Jasmine are the team behind Angels Community Group, a not-for-profit working to take care of their community in Bundaberg. 

The Angels began as a training organisation, founded by Sue. It evolved to include a pre-loved clothing and furniture shop, and a food pantry providing low-cost groceries.  

The cost-of-living crisis has seen the Angels expand to provide many additional services, from hairdressing to school lunches, and vocational training through their mini-mart and café. Their support centre provides hot meals and showers to visitors, while being a hub for services such as assistance with employment and counselling. 

The Angels’ success is driven by Sue and Jasmine’s dedication and determination to address inequity and food insecurity. They have developed vital relationships with local businesses and government, helping them secure the resources they need, and they have created a united, generous and powerful community that doesn't allow anyone to fall through the cracks.
